Hypothermia protection. Travel Tips

Tourist tips

In cold windy weather, do not allow the body to become hypothermic or overheated. Typically, a storm jacket is used most of the time.

If you need to dress warmly, increase the number of inner layers of clothing - sweaters, shirts, etc. Wearing a sweater in windy weather without an outer thick jacket does not make much sense.

Upon arrival at the resting place, immediately get dressed, without waiting for the cooling to begin. When carrying out work on organizing a camp, you can dress lighter.

Wear a rain jacket around the fire: sparks and embers from a large fire slide off the tarpaulin better and do not burn through it, while a jacket made of synthetic material (nylon, nylon) is quickly melted by sparks.

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

low cadmium rice 15.10.2017

China has created a new type of rice that is not afraid of cadmium pollution. The project, led by Yuan Longping, the famous "father of hybrid rice" in China, has passed the quality test conducted by the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Ministry of Agriculture.

A trial plantation for a new low-cadmium rice variety called "Indica" is located in a village in Xiangtan County, Hunan Province, in south-central China. Here the content of cadmium in the soil is 1,5 mg/kg. According to the results of the tests in two samples of the new variety, the content of cadmium was found to be 0,06 mg/kg and 0,07 mg/kg, which is much lower than the national standard of 0,2 mg/kg.

According to Zhao Binggran of Hunan Provincial Rice Research Center, the low-cadmium 'Indica' rice was developed through genome editing and hybridization without adding an exogenous gene.

"We removed the cadmium-absorbing rice gene to create a new variety. Our technology is a major breakthrough," said Yuan Longping.

Bai Lianyang, head of the Hunan Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences, said the new development would likely put an end to cadmium-contaminated rice.

In 2013, rice produced in Hunan Province was found to contain excessive levels of cadmium, a carcinogenic industrial chemical that appears to have come from water and soil pollution.
